Tony was born in Rochester, NY, on July 29, 1949. He graduated from Aquinas Institute in 1967, and then attended Rochester Business Institute. He worked as a Computer Analyst at Xerox and retired from Hewlett Packard.

Tony’s greatest love was spending time with his family. He was a devoted “Papa” and enjoyed being around his grandkids every chance he got. He attended all their special events and was so proud of all their many accomplishments.

His greatest passion was cooking and baking. Tony especially loved baking an abundance of Christmas cookies and sharing them with family. He loved all things Star Trek, building models, bird watching, spending time in his yard, and helping his sons-in-law with projects. Tony enjoyed many shopping trips to Hegedorn’s. He will be missed more than words can describe.
